10.2 -> 10.3 xen update test result
I have just updated my 10.2 XEN system to 10.3RC1 and found a few things. 1: It seems like /etc/udev/rules.d/30-net_persistent_names.rules is now called /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules by the /etc/sysconfig/network/scripts/convert_persistent_name_rules script. I had a special rule to base eth0 on pci id instead of MAC, that rule got corrupt. SUBSYSTEM=="net", ACTION=="add", SYSFS{device}=="0000:00:07.0", IMPORT="/lib/udev/rename_netiface %k eth0" #got converted to SUBSYSTEM=="net", DRIVERS=="?*", ATTRS{address}=="0000:00:07.0", NAME="eth0" and that did of course fail since ATTRS should be device (I guess). On the good news side, it's a never version of forcedeth in 10.3 so I no longer need my custom rule. 2: XEN failures: After disabling autostart of the xen guests I booted the XEN version of the kernel. First issue is that my physical textscreen is 25x80 but stty reports 50x80 so I was very confused as to what was going on at first. After (blindly) logging in and typing "stty rows 25" the screen started to behave acceptable. Now I tried to start one of my domU with "vm create -c sato" but it did just hang, didn't get anything at all out on the screen. Looked around a little and it seems like the migration from xen 3.0 to 3.1 isn't that trivial and requires some work (RTFD for a start) I did also try to build a new domU using yast and for a start the interface makes it a lot harder then before since I have to type in the install source manually despite it's the same as dom0 (an nfs mount point). The install started but when it rebooted an error box came up that it was no kernel there. Tried again with a text only build and there it did the same (after complaining about ntp config failing since ntp wasn't installed) -- ------------------------------------------------------------------- Techwiz, Peter Sjoberg PGP key (12F506C8) on keyserver & homepage Key fingerprint = 3DC2 CEBA 1590 B41A 3780 955A DB42 02BB 12F5 06C8 mailto:peters AT techwiz.ca http://www.techwiz.ca/~peters -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-testing+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-testing+help@opensuse.org
